Hmm, that's a good question... :) From a perusal of the source, it looks like the discard character causes the tty to dump (flush) all output in the buffer and all subsequent output on the floor (like ^O in VMS) until you hit another key (unlike VMS). What I want is a key to discard _input_ (too fast with that return key, I am). Or even better, discard the last newline... must look at source...
